In our social media-driven world, many seek views and followers. But what truly motivates us? Beyond money and fame, Nietzsche’s concept of the “will to power” offers insights into modern success and self-fulfillment.
Understanding Nietzsche’s Will to Power
Nietzsche’s idea goes beyond mere survival. It’s about seeking power — not necessarily political, but the feeling of being in control. With followers and fame, we might feel superior because most people lack them. It’s not about the fame or money itself but the exclusivity.
The Drive for Innovation
Some might view the will to power negatively, questioning why we are so power-hungry. However, many innovations, like architecture or art from Michelangelo and Van Gogh, are driven by this concept. Humans have a natural drive to create something new and extraordinary, unlike AI, which relies on existing information. This drive leads to significant innovation.
